It looks like s**t, but it does the job. My Harman Kardon Aura had too much bass when I played turntables. This app helped me set the subwoofer quieter, which saved me some money, because I didn't have to spend it on an equalizer anymore.

Saved me. Works great. Better than the original remote

Extremely disappointing to find that it doesn't work with the Aura Studio 2, given that it's an expensive speaker. Can't fault the speaker itself though which is superb, would be useful if the dome came off to clean inside it. But I can't rate an app that doesn't work on my product.

Unfortunately not more supported by the new android versions. The speaker (AURA) is old but still very good. I like very much its sound. But unfortunately I cannot install this app to my androids. I need/want this App because I do not want to go to the speaker to change/set the volume or the bass up or down. The option to let the speaker with a volume near to 100% and then controlling the volume with the phone is not really what I expect nowadays, but the only one workaround, what I do not like.
